Fun Spot America

The Write-Up

The full story

Fun Spot is the old-school midway the mega-parks left behind: family-owned since 1997, with White Lightning's wooden coaster, the Freedom Flyer, multi-level go-kart tracks and the SkyCoaster, and lines guests describe as little to none. There is no admission gate to clear, just pay, ride, repeat. It reads as the coaster day Orlando families actually take, clean, unhurried and human-scale.

The story of International Drive
